Actually, you don't do an "rpm -e newkernel.rpm". That doesn't work (putting the .rpm on the end). Try an "rpm -q kernel" to find out which kernel rpm's you have installed. Once you decide which ones you want to remove do an "rpm -e kernel-2.4.20-19.9" for example. That will remove kernel-2.4.20-19.9. It takes it out of grub as well as from the disk. -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
